The Peerless Emperor Chapter 977: 978: Long-Legged Radish

Chapter 977: Chapter 978: Long-Legged Radish

Looking at the golden retriever squatting at his feet, Lin Qian’s heart imdiately cried out, feeling like he was seeing a ghost.

He couldn’t wrap his head around how this little thing had managed to follow him inside.

Lin Qian distinctly rembered leaving the golden retriever at his master’s residence; he hadn’t brought it out. How did it inexplicably end up at his feet?

“…” After a mont of silence, Lin Qian slowly started speaking, “Did you sneak in… following ?”

The golden retriever raised its head, staring with big, watery eyes at Lin Qian, and after a long mont of staring back…

“Woof! Woof!”

Lin Qian placed his hand on his forehead, sighed deeply twice, and exclaid, “As expected, you’re quite the clever little thing, following all the way here.”

The little golden retriever is quite mysterious, inscrutable to Lin Qian, and even Zhuge Ming couldn’t see through it.

Its hidden abilities are unparalleled; Soul Consciousness can detect nothing.

The reason Ming Chun Hall noticed it was entirely because it was intentional.

Wei Wushuang would definitely investigate that day’s incident.

The investigation revealed that after the golden retriever stole the Pill, it barked twice provocatively, then ran away.

The reason it got caught was because its injuries were quite severe; its speed was insufficient, allowing it to be surrounded, and was ultimately bound by a Soul Device from one of the shop’s assistants.

Speaking of which, the Soul Device that bound it wasn’t of low grade because the person who used it wasn’t an assistant, but the grandson of the Ming Chun Hall’s branch Hall Master in Ziliang City’s second mistress’ nephew-in-law.

Now, thanks to Huasheng’s arrangents, the golden retriever’s injuries have stabilized and are recovering slowly.

Its speed is increasing steadily, prompting Lin Qian to exclaim in wonder at its progress.

Moreover, with the golden retriever’s ability to evade Soul Consciousness or detection Array, it’s only natural that it can follow stealthily without being noticed.

“This place isn’t a playground; why did you follow here?” Lin Qian half-squatted and gently stroked the golden retriever’s head, laughing, “Stay safe, don’t go too far from , or you’ll be in danger.”

“Woof!” The golden retriever barked excitedly, nodding insistently, then snuggled its little head into Lin Qian’s chest.

In this perilous relic, having such a little companion brings joy to Lin Qian.

Lin Qian held the golden retriever close and stood up when a figure abruptly appeared beside him, imdiately kneeling with one knee toward him, saying, “Majesty Supre, peerless unparalleled, eternal glory, unifying the universe.”

Accustod to Zhao Long’s serious and earnest flattery, Lin Qian waved for him to rise: “Dispense with the formalities, rise.”

“Thank you, Majesty!” Zhao Long, clad in black dragon silver armor, stood excitedly, his eyes gleaming.

This was yet another golden opportunity to achieve great rit, with the honor of being the sole protector beside the Majesty — an honor not afforded to ordinary people.

Just like Sun Wukong, itching for action, anxious and restless, wanting to leave but unable to; thinking of Zhao Long made him feel content.

“For this Heroes Gathering, I solely rely on you. Be cautious, don’t be reckless, understood?” Lin Qian said, holding the golden retriever while looking at Zhao Long.

Zhao Long urgently bowed and kneeled respectfully: “I understand, Majesty’s safety is my safety, Majesty’s life and death above all else, I will definitely fight to the death to protect the Majesty.”

“In my opinion, this so-called Heroes Gathering is misnad; only the Majesty is truly wise and martial. To , the others are rely fa-seeking charlatans, daring to put themselves on equal footing with the Majesty, claiming to be talents — it’s simply audacious, deserving death.”

“I believe these insolent scoundrels must be executed here to set an example.”

Listening to Zhao Long’s murderous words, Lin Qian couldn’t help but sweat.

Having such a subordinate, Lin Qian truly didn’t know what to say.

Even the golden retriever in Lin Qian’s arms widened his dog eyes, staring at Zhao Long in shock.

Clearly, it was also awed by Zhao Long’s tirade.

“I understand your intentions, rise for now.” At this, Lin Qian helplessly waved his hand, telling Zhao Long not to kneel any longer.

Receiving the command, Zhao Long stood up upright, waiting patiently for Lin Qian’s next order.

At this mont, Lin Qian glanced around the surroundings.

Lin Qian’s current task is either to remain at his position or find a safe place, awaiting a eting with the fourth-generation of the Wei family after ten days, then leaving this dense forest.

But staying in one spot indefinitely isn’t a solution.

“Woof!” Just then, the golden retriever in Lin Qian’s arms sniffed, raised its right paw, and pointed forward.

The golden retriever’s obvious directional sign left Lin Qian curious: “What, did you discover sothing?”

“Woof Woof!” The golden retriever barked twice more; although it was barking, Lin Qian easily understood it ant there was sothing good ahead.

This magical little golden retriever made Lin Qian believe it, considering staying put only resulted in idleness.

After a short walk forward, the golden retriever wriggled out of his embrace and pawed at the ground.

Soil flew, and in the blink of an eye, a hole appeared in front, and suddenly, sothing leapt out, darting to the side quickly.

“Grr~” The golden retriever growled lowly, transforming into a golden flash, chasing the darting thing, biting it.

At this mont, the golden retriever trotted energetically back to Lin Qian, hopping with a pleased deanor, like wanted praise.

Lin Qian saw in its mouth what looked like a juicy radish, yet this radish-like object sprouted two legs.

Taking this legged radish from the golden retriever’s mouth, Lin Qian curiously held it in his hand while it kept kicking its legs.

“Spirit Ginseng!”

Upon closer inspection, Lin Qian imdiately recognized what this legged radish truly was.

With certainty about its identity, Lin Qian grew more astonished at the golden retriever.

Despite being classified as Earth Grade Lower Level, the Spirit Ginseng’s price rivals the Spiritual dicine of Heavenly Grade Upper Stage!
